REFUND POLICY:

Items listed as A/F mean that the items have faults or are as found. When items are listed as A/F, the onus is on the buyer to request a condition report for more information on the damage.
All items listed at auction are secondhand or antique, therefore may have wear and tear consistent with age. We recommend viewing or asking for a condition report previous to purchasing to guarantee your satisfaction with the item.
If discrepancy arises, it is up to Auctioneers discretion if a refund is possible.
Group lots (listed as: assortment, group, mixed, sundry or quantity) are not checked over for condition and are therefore sold as found.
No refunds are offered on group lots or lots marked as A/F.

REGISTRATION REQUIREMENTS:
A credit card is required to complete the registration process for online bidding.
Your credit card will be charged with your purchases only after 3 business days if payment has not been received and/or you have no organised payment previously with us.
Your credit card will NOT be charged if you make payment within 3 business days, or previous arrangements made.
PRE-BIDDING
All online bidding before the lot is offered by the auctioneer is considered pre-bidding.
Pre-bidding is the same as absentee bidding, where you leave your maximum bid amount. The bidding will still progress in standard increments, where the item may sell at your maximum bid, with you being the under-bidder.
Example:
Your maximum bid is $30, with the starting price being $25. We take your the bid at $25, and another buyer bids against you at $30.
